Its most distinctive feature is its unusually large ears, which serve to dissipate heat.  The fennec is the smallest species of canid in the world; coat, ears and kidney functions have adapted to a high-temperature, low-water, desert environment.

 In addition, its hearing is sensitive enough to hear prey moving underground. It mainly eats insects, small mammals, and birds.
